"The pandemic H1N1 flu virus continues to cause widespread infection in many parts of the world but is not becoming more serious, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Friday"

"Every year, seasonal influenza kills between 250,000 and 500,000 people globally, it says. But H1N1 is causing a year-round flu season and may infect more people than a usual seasonal virus, potentially adding up to more deaths."

"The mild scenario is the most plausible right now, he says, given the WHO tally of 816 deaths for 134,503 confirmed cases.
"It's a little bit worse but not a lot worse than a regular influenza cycle," McKibbin, director of the Center of Applied Macroeconomic Analysis at the Australian National University, said."

It has been one of the biggest pharmaceautical scams carried out for a while which came in hand-in-hand with the recession.

It never was as bad as they claimed and a few companies have cleaned up nicely from this.

One must remember that as more generic drugs appear on the market, then these companies are losing their profits and need to come up with new ingenious ways scaring society into buying into their drugs.

Interesting to see the new findings starting to appear and how a lot of people have been saying this all along.
